Members of Oregon Branch of
Roosevelt Memorial Associa
tion Hold First Conference.
DR. COE IS STATE CHAIRMAN
Small Contributions From Gen
eral Public, and Not Large In
dividual Gifts, Are Desired.
Admirers of Theodore Roosevelt
in Oregon and throughout the coun
try will be grtven an opportunity to
contribute to a $10,000,000 fund, for
the erection of a suitable memorial
in his honor. Following a confer
ence at ttie Benson hotel Tuesday
afternoon, announcement of a cam
her
paign to raise a,uuu lowaru mis
fund in Oregon was made by Edward
H; Brown, -district manager of the.
. Pacific coast for the National Roose
velt Memorial association.

Other members are: Mrs. Frederick

Dr. Andrew C. Smith, Edgar B. Piper
and Senator George E. Chamberlain, all
-of Portland: Bruce Dennis of Ia
Grande : Mrs. Lawrence T. Harris,
Salem and John H. Smith of Astoria.
A conference of the Oregon-committee
will be held in .Portland September 15.
when plans for distributing the quota to
he raised among the counties of;j the
slate will be laid and a district chair
man appointed. According to the ex
pressed wishes of the Roosevelt family,
no large contribution will be accepted
and opportunity will be riven every
resident in the state to add something
to the memorial fund.
"It is the deBire of the officers and
members of the Roosevelt Memorial ae
Hociation and of the members of the
Roosevelt family that the memorial
erected shall be an expression of respect
and love from the people of the country
and not the . gift of individuals," said
Dr. Coe. "All the expense of organizing
the memorial association and of collect
ing the fund will be borne by William
Boyce Thompson of New York, president
of the organization and a lifelong friend
of Mr. Roosevelt. Every penny con
tributed will be actually used in the
construction of the memorial ' agreed
upon."
MEMORIAL' PARK PROPOSED
Just what form of memorial will be
chosen ia still a matter of conjecture,
according to Manager Brown. It has
been proposed that a monument be
erected In Washington. I. C, and also
that a memorial park be established at
Oyster Bay or Sagamore hill, the home
of the Roosevelt family for several
years prior to his death.
The raising of funds will not be a
difficult matter, according to Brown. No
attempt will be made to urge contribu
tions and the purpose of the organiza
tion is solely to afford opportunity to
all who wish to share in the building of
the memorial. Committees have been
appointed in all the states and wide
publicity is being given the movement.
COMMITTEE TO MEET SOOS
The Washingtoh committee consists of
William H. Cowles, Spokane, chairman ;
Thomas Burke and C. S. Wills of
Seattle: M. C. Moore and H. H. Turner,

mittee will meet at an early date and
devise means of -raising the $100,000
quota assigned to Washington. On Sep
tember 18, a joint meeting of the Oregon.
Washington and Idaho committees will
be held In Portland.

velt Memorial association include men

Standard Oil Pays
$2000 More Tax
In July Than June
Salem, Aug. 13. A material Increase
In the use of motor vehicle fuel oils in
Oregon is indicated by the size of the
check received Tuesday by the secretary
of states elt'ce from the-Standard Oil
company in pf.yment of he tax on the
July pains of gasoline and distillate. The
July check for $28,761.80 is approximately
$2000 greater than the check covering the
June sales, This represents the tax of
1 cent per gallon on 2,654,864 gallons of
gasoline .and V cent a gallon on 442,633
gallons of distillate.
Anemic People Need
Blood-Iron Phosphate
Anemic people are usually thin,- pale,
weak, discouraged, nervous wrecks ;
showing that lack of Iron hi the blood is
all too frequently accompanied by a run
down nervous system due - to lack of
phosphorous. Strength, health, vim,
vigor and energy depend almost entirely
on making up this deficiency In iron and
phosphorous.
Unquestionably one of the best things
for this purpose is the great French dis
covery known among our druggists as
Blood-Iron Phosphate. Folks who have
tried " it say that one five-grain tablet
with each meal quickly restores depleted
nervous energy, enriches the blood, in
creases strength, vitality and endurance,
and those who are thin -usually put on
pounds of solid .stay-there flesh in a
short time. . ,
T Inasmuch as The Owl Drug Co. and
all other druggists are authorized to sell
Blood-Iron Phosphate under a guaran
tee of satisfaction or money back, every
thin, weak, nervous or anemic man or
woman should give it a trial without
-delay.. :
